A Story of Faith.

The conversation drifted to publish
ers. and he told me a pleasing little
story in which Mr.. Moore. publ sher OF
The Rural Aebo- Yorker, was the bene-
factor. A naturalist of considerable
note resided n Lancaster city ut the
time. He owned q Little home, had q
profession, but was not rich in th s
worlds goods. Mr.. Moore used to
send to him all queries in connection
with obnoxious insects, etc. The
naturalist would make drawing of the
insect, give its proper name. explain
It. habits. peculiarities, etc, all of
which would appear in The Rural Aetc-
Yorker. One Chr stmas morning the
naturalist said to his daughter: MY
dear. there a turkey in the stove. to
be sure, but this 25-eent piece Is all the
money / have in the world. Not a
bright outlook, is it?' Presently .
needy neighbor dropped in to sol cit
aims, and the naturalist promptly
handed her the quarter. He was a big
hearted man, devout Christian. and
with subj me faith in Providence.
Daughter, the money will come back
to me four-fold," he said. Just then
the postman handed in letter. The
naturalist opened it and found in it .
check for $50. 1t was from Mr.. Moore.
who wrote in substance: You have
been very kind in preparing those arti-
cles for US from time to time. You. no
doubt, regarded it as "A labor of love-
but we must ask you to accept this
check, not as complete compensation.
but as a slight expression of our sppre-
citation of the value of your work"
There, Mary, what tell you?" the
old naturalist cried. his eyes filing with
tears. This is a true incident, and
should the Lancaster dailies copy it
they will have no trouble in supplying
the naturalist's ame.-Phitadetphta
